About NeGIS:
The amount of data and services supported by Information Systems (ISs) has increased exponentially during the last few
years. Recent developments have shown an inversion towards decentralization and distribution of applications and services
in the huge pool of devices and computing facilities available nearer to the customers. This shift is driven by the Internet of
Things, which is further increasing the amount of data to be stored and computed. Fog Computing is the last frontier for ISs,
where data and services can be moved in the continuum of resources between the cloud and the edge.
In this workshop we aim to collect contributions investigating issues related to the management of cloud and fog
computing in modern information systems with a focus, but not limited, on energy efficiency, security, and privacy, their
relations and trade-off with other requirements such as response time and throughput. We are considering both the
application components of the information system with their complexity, as well as the management of the data used by
such applications.
Topics of interest:
○ Modelling, Monitoring, and Managing Cloud and Fog computing solutions
○ Models, methods, and tools for data management in Cloud and Fog Computing
○ Energy-awareness and sustainability in Distributed Information Systems
○ Quality of Service, energy efficiency and security in Fog Computing
○ Blockchain proposals for IoT and edge devices
○ Blockchain-based architectures for Fog Computing
○ Distributed and Federated Learning in heterogeneous Information Systems
○ Synergy between Distributed Information Systems and the Internet of Things
○ Security and privacy solutions for next generation Information Systems
